Shift linkage proper fit?

I have a integra spec type r shift linkage in my crx with b series swap. It doesn't fit and the seller said its a bolt on. Has anyone actually cut it and welded it back. What were the measurements to cut? Thanks.

You didnt look very hard! Really, I think it is like 2 3/8 inch of each piece. Like norcalgsr said mount it and make your measurments. It could be different depending on what mounts you used or you could just buy aftermarket linkage.

Other places say that the mount kit determines how much to cut off. Some kits sit the motor closer to the firewall, closer to the crossmember, or dead center like the HaSport kit. If you have the HaSport Kit, then 2 3/8 inches is correct. other than that, you're gonna have to measure it.
